    I’m painfully bad at composition, but watching videos like this give me so many ideas and give me inspiration to improve existing ones. Wonderfully explained and great thumbnails too!

    I clicked on the thumbnail assuming it was from Finch’s channel. Then I heard the whistling. Then I saw him. What a roller coaster of emotions. And what distinctive sketch style!

    I wish that growing up I had more stuff like this in my art classes and not just examples with a lecture. I love to draw but all the techniques and the technical stuff has pushed me out of it for years because I didn't understand it. But now watching them be used in the midst of drawing makes it a lot more clear than looking at finished products.

    Sometimes I watch series/movies and get distracted trying to find the compositions. When there's a still shot it may be composed well and then lose that composition as the camera moves until it rests on the next shot. Sometimes even panning to the next shot has compositional elements in that panning. It's amazing! Somebody did so much planning and design.
